Dealers and Resources

Tenkara rods are ideal for mountain stream fly fishing and for catching smaller fish such as bluegill or smallmouth. Tenkara rods are ultra-lightweight, very portable (they telescope into a mere 20 inches), and are excellent for backpacking.

Quick run-through: If in doubt, get the 12ft Iwana, a great all arounder. The 13ft Ayu for more open stream and desire for a softer rod. 13ft-14ft7in Ito is our premium rod and an excellent tenkara rod for more open streams and even lakes. The 11ft Iwana is good for tighter streams with lots of trees overhead. The 12ft Yamame and 13ft6inches Amago are good options if you constantly catch fish over 17inches or bass. You may watch this 7 minute video for a walk-through of our tenkara rod models. And, here's a chart to help assist in selecting your tenkara rod.

*Every rod is backed by our warranty and excellent customer service. In case of problems, please contact us for the quickest solution on getting your rod fixed. For more information, visit our Guarantee page. Please use only tippet of 7lbs (~3.5kg) breaking strength or less, and please read the instructions on how to use the rods.
